Absolutely a GREAT microphone for your computer! I used other types of microphones and I was getting a lot of feedback on them and they were a very bulky and took up space on my computer. This is an amazing microphone because it plugs into your computer and you can move it into many different positions and the neck is long enough that you don't have to be on top of your computer to speak. You are able to move it to your direction. I was so happy with the first one that I purchased that I end up getting another one.

Before I purchase the Buddy Flamingo Mic 7G I did notice that although it's fantastic and great sounding microphone one of the criticisms that I read was that the Buddy Flamingo USB that connects to your USB on your computer tends to move and shake especially if your computer shakes on your table. Initially when I connect to my microphone this was happening to me I noticed that the connector part was like it was hanging in the air. It did not seem that the connection was firm enough so when you plug it into your computer that is stays and place. The way I fixed this was that I purchased little tabs that you attached to the bottom of an object such as a vase so you don't scratch the surface let's say a table. I purchased these tabs very cheaply at a 99 cent store and they work great. The portion of the microphone USB connector that seems to be hanging in air has been filled up by these tabs making for a firm connection. It does not move at all it's firmly connected now. True it doesn't really look very beautiful but I don't really care it works for me it does the job and it's absolutely great. I would just recommend to InSync buddy to maybe redesign the USB connector so that to make it a more firm connection. Other than the connector issue it is an absolutely perfect perfect product. Very slim and does not take up any space, easy plug-and-play user-friendly, no annoying feedback, crystal clear sound. it is just a wonderful wonderful microphone, I'm so happy that I found it

The price is a little bit expensive but believe me if you need a microphone this is well worth. It is an excellent microphone. I cannot recommend it highly enough. An absolutely a fantastic product It is well made, sturdy, and the price is good. The vendor is excellent. Fast delivery, good low price, and good customer follow up. Great!!

Was trying to get my speech recognition software to actually recognize what I was saying....argh! I researched and chose this great little mic, the Buddy Flamingo 7G. It arrived super fast and was even more than I expected.

By the photos I was expecting something a bulkier, but was so pleasantly surprised when I opened the box and found this sleek little mike with this elegant, well constructed, low-profile METAL (not plastic) goose-neck. It easily positions in a multitude of configurations and enables you to place the mic right near your mouth no matter your height with ease and without blocking your access to the keyboard. Oh, and it stays right where you place it.

It was so easy to plug in and viola! In a couple of minutes all software was automatically installed and I was up and ready to go. My computer automatically selected it as the default, although there are simple instructions if it does not.

When I began to use it, I fell in love even more, as my speech recognition went from about 10% accuracy to about 85% accuracy. I am sure with practice, that accuracy will increase even more. It made the difference of me throwing up my hands in frustration to being able to dictate to my computer with success. I needed the speech recognition software to function properly for my work, and now it is game on.

Others mentioned pressure on the USB port, but I do not experience this on my Samsung computer. The mic seats into the USB very firmly and is so lightweight that it really does not "pull" on the port.

I am sure the other mics I researched also improve the speech recognition software's accuracy, but for my preferences, this one won hands down over other options for the following reasons: 1. The freedom this offers over the constriction of wearing a headset on my head and in my ear all day, 2. The freedom of not being attached by a cord to my computer, thus not having to remove the headset when I needed to go do something, 3. The sleek, low profile of this microphone vs. a stand alone desk mic that is harder to position next to your mouth, 4. The compact, lightweight design with no large heavy or bulky base or awkward protruding head-gear enables me to quickly drop it into my computer bag and go, 5. Just plug and use or unplug and pack up....no stringy cords to wrap up.....

Bottom line....I love this little powerful mic! It was everything I hoped it would be. I highly recommend this mic.
